A perennial. Lasts a week or so and has the most beautiful red color.

Grow most vegetables, and some fruit trees, currants, haskap, grapes, gooseberry ,paw paw,. Live in a Garden of Eden area and can buy many fruits and vegetables in season. Preserve by root cold room and pressure can slurries. Bulk food supplies dried grains, and beans. Indeed I consume tempeh daily for breakfast, main source of protean.

I suppose a good growing area in my area. I am on the periphery of the Niagara Region. Surrounded by the Great Lakes. We get usually good growing weather for 3 or 4 months. June, July, and August and often September. Soil is generally quality. Rainfall is usually adequate. Sun is reasonable.

Sounds good Durgan :) We live in what used to be known as the garden of England, still fruit orchards around but most of the farm shops are too expensive :(

Our vegetable and fruit farms are disappearing. Pizza, Mc/Donald's, Donut shops, and other fast food places have filled the gap. It shows on the populace at large. It's a shame and is probably unhealthy in the relatively long term.

We see McDonald's wrappers thrown out of cars along the roads. Guess that's the mentality of the folk that eat there, don't see many discarded fruit and veg punnets :rolleyes:

We had some friends come round and bought us locally grown Asparagus today. We gave them some spring onions in return :)
